Photographer's Note

There are several gates allowing entry to the ancient town of Fez: Bab Bou Jeloud, the western gate has bright decorations and hotels and cafes grouped around it,Bab Er Rsif is the central gate, opening into the square in front of the mosque of the same name, Bab el-Ftouh is the southeast gate giving onto the cemeteries, and Bab Guissa,the north gate,lies on the hillside close to the Merenid tombs vantage point.
The principal entrance for tourists is the Bab Bou Jeloud, shown here, which was constructed in the modern era in 1913 but appears deceptively older with its tiled facade.

An exquisite photo of the palace's facade, Danos.
Fine outlines and well collected the light and colors.
Good scale by the tourist scattered in front, and contrast well with the two Moroccan red flags.

Excellent shot of this palace whuch stands superbly on the blue sky. I like the deepness to the gates created by the distnace on the place. The by-standers add life and perspective. The colors are very good and the sharpness is excellent.

Excellent shot. I love the strong colours and the red flags are really eyecatching against the very blue sky. All the people makes it bit vivid and gives a sense of scale. Perfect sharpness. TFS and have a nice evening!

Good evening.
Good article on the gate with the given data ...
Nice view of the gate and the flag ...
Good image sharpness, contrast, beautiful color.
Good composition, beautiful moment with tourists.
Beautiful architecture.
Good evening and all the best.
For me, a big snow that is still falling.

The wideness of the square is giving depth to the composition. The point of view is showing the details and colors of the architecturee of the palace. The good luminosity is enhancing the colors. Have a nice day.

Hi Danos,
an image with a great luminosity and a few fantastic colors, which provide a high quality to your composition.
I like this nice architecture, its ornamental details, the red flags at both sides, and the people who adds an effective reference to the ensemble.
It is a beautiful work.
Best regards, my friend,

Hi Danos
Great place, looking at this photo on a winter morning this sunlight feels almost unreal! Love the saturated blue of the sky. The red flags look great on this kind of background.
Have a nice day

Hello Danos,
This is a sunny and colorful picture of good example of beautiful Moroccan architecture. Perfectly well composed, masterfully captured and very informatively commented in the note!

You're capturing well this entrance gate by a good composition and excellent tone/clarity, so it's interesting and impressive to see the gate with a good design, tiled facade and colorful combination. And, it's impressive in wide sqaure in front of the gate and national flag, too.

Yes, I remember this place well, the famous palace for the king, who was never really here. Excellent day with wonderful blue sky. It was mostly hazy and cloudy when I was here. Good POV and good rich colors.

Hi Danos
Splendid, interesting viewpoint and the composition is excellent with the flags providing a superb natural framing. The palace is superbly captured with lot of details, texture, shades in beautiful light and rich colors tones. The contrast to the blue sky is stunning, a fantastic image and so much local flavour of this amazing architecture. Good technical quality. Well done, Congrats.
Kind regards

Lot of exoticism seen here, built by hearty workers who used men-made adobe bricks
to build the outer wall around the "Athens of Africa"!
Side lighting shows the best of the elaborate decorations on the main entrance for tourists.
Se xereto.

Hello Danos,
The curves and lines of regular architecture, and its colors are pleasing to the eye. The photo is well exposed and sharp. An interesting photo and very good quality. Bravo.
Have a nice evening

This looks a wonderful place to visit. Even the name conjures up eastern magic!
A fine composition defines the different areas of pavement, palace and backcloth sky. The details of the arched doorways and arched decorations are sharply captured and given relief by use of shadows and highlights.

Excellent image of the interesting facade of this building - love the red flags against the cobalt blue sky & the visitors all dotted around enjoying the warm weather & sights.
Wonderful clarity & POV .

Hello Danos. I have fond memories of this magnificent building. Here the king from time to time lives. In any case, the palace is a sight - at least from the outside. You've seen this picture well - and well presented. Rgds, Wolfgang.

Hello Danos.
Superb image of the facade of the royal palace in Fes, the wonderful and intense blue sky, is a great contrast with the beautiful facade, we can see clearly, thanks to the good image sharpness.
Splendid POV. I like.
Good start to the week.
Best regards.

Hi Danos,
The light across the buildings is well-controlled, full of details. The color contrast against clear blue sky is marvelous. The peple in front of palace add nice life to the scene. Nicely done indeed.
